Description

Profiles of dissolved trace elements collected using a trace-metal clean rosette from surface to 1000m depth.

Methods & Sampling

Please see the related methods papers for all methodology details (Measures et al., 2008 and Milne et al., 2010).

In brief, samples were collected using a rosette system, described in Measures et al. (2008), comprised of a Seabird SBE 911+ CTD, SBE 443 dissolved oxygen sensor, Wet Labs FL 1 fluorometer, and 12-L Teflon coated GO-FLO bottles. See Measures et al. (2008) for sampling procedures/protocols.

Milne et al. (2010) describes the methods used for the simultaneous determination of eight trace metals (Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb) in seawater using the commercially available Toyopearl AF-Chelate-650M chelating resin. Isotope dilution (ID) was employed for the determination of Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb whereas the method of standard addition was used for the mono-isotopic elements Mn and Co. The method was verified through the analysis of certified reference material (NASS-5) and the SAFe inter-comparison samples (S1 and D2).

Data Processing Description

Missing data are coded -999. This occurs when the ICPMS data for an extracted sample is unreliable. All data reduction was done using Excel.

The WHP flag code scheme was used with this data set. The WHP bottle parameter data quality codes are:
1 = Sample for this measurement was drawn from water bottle but analysis not received. Note that if water is drawn for any measurement from a water bottle, the quality flag for that parameter must be set equal to 1 initially to ensure that all water samples are accounted for.
2 = Acceptable measurement.
3 = Questionable measurement.
4 = Bad measurement.
5 = Not reported.
6 = Mean of replicate measurements (Number of replicates should be specified in the -.DOC file and replicate data tabulated).
7 = Manual chromatographic peak measurement.
8 = Irregular digital chromatographic peak integration.
9 = Sample not drawn for this measurement from this bottle.

BCO-DMO Processing:
- formatted TIME column to HHMM;
- replaced "<LOD" with "BDL";
- filled empty cells with "nd";
- made corrections to EXPOCODE numbers: changed P16N_3250TT192 to P16N_3250TT191 and "33RR20050" to "33RR200501";
- added date/time field in ISO8601 format using the original DATE and TIME fields provided.

Instruments

CTD Sea-Bird SBE 911plus

Supplied Name:

Supplied Description:

Samples were collected using a rosette system, described in Measures et al. (2008), comprised of a Seabird SBE 911+ CTD, SBE 443 dissolved oxygen sensor, Wet Labs FL 1 fluorometer, and 12-L Teflon coated GO-FLO bottles. See Measures et al. (2008) for sampling procedures/protocols.

Instrument Type

Generic Name: CTD Sea-Bird SBE 911plus

Acronym: CTD SBE 911plus

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L22/current/TOOL0058/

Generic Description:

The Sea-Bird SBE 911 plus is a type of CTD instrument package for continuous measurement of conductivity, temperature and pressure. The SBE 911 plus includes the SBE 9plus Underwater Unit and the SBE 11plus Deck Unit (for real-time readout using conductive wire) for deployment from a vessel. The combination of the SBE 9 plus and SBE 11 plus is called a SBE 911 plus. The SBE 9 plus uses Sea-Bird's standard modular temperature and conductivity sensors (SBE 3 plus and SBE 4). The SBE 9 plus CTD can be configured with up to eight auxiliary sensors to measure other parameters including dissolved oxygen, pH, turbidity, fluorescence, light (PAR), light transmission, etc.). more information from Sea-Bird Electronics

GO-FLO Bottle

Supplied Name:

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: GO-FLO Bottle

Acronym: GO-FLO

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/30/

Generic Description:

GO-FLO bottle cast used to collect water samples for pigment, nutrient, plankton, etc. The GO-FLO sampling bottle is specially designed to avoid sample contamination at the surface, internal spring contamination, loss of sample on deck (internal seals), and exchange of water from different depths.

Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer

Supplied Name: Thermo-Finnigan Element I (E1) HR-ICP-MS

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer

Acronym: ICP Mass Spec

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/LAB15/

Generic Description:

An ICP Mass Spec is an instrument that passes nebulized samples into an inductively-coupled gas plasma (8-10000 K) where they are atomized and ionized. Ions of specific mass-to-charge ratios are quantified in a quadrupole mass spectrometer.
